Apathy toward Mapathy?
Nice, very nice... tatts...
Is there a negative consensus growing on the Modern Warfare 2 "Stimulus Package" DLC? This GamesRadar op-ed feature, "Why you shouldn't buy the Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Package", is one indication. Still, it looks like IW is trying. Yesterday, double XP was extended to all playlists. And, in addition, fourzerotwo tweeted that the frequency of the new maps is being increased in the general playlists. Today's Modern Warfare vid is a TDM match on Sub Base, with I8IHawk ruining the enemy team's day with a lot of nice long range FAMAS bursts. Also linked is a neat tutorial put together by WoodysGamertag on hidden flag capping spots on the Stimulus Package maps. In the next 2 vids, Hutch interviews Infinity Ward creative strategist Robert "Fourzerotwo" Bowling. Hutch quizzes fourzerotwo on the Stimulus Package maps. On to the links:
